Pierce holes in the tomatoes, brush them with oil (brush the vine too!) and sprinkle with salt. Lay them next to the peppers
Roast the peppers and tomatoes for about 40 minutes, or until the skin on the peppers is all blistered, then let it cool down for about 10 minutes
Once cool enough, peel the peppers and take the tomatoes off the vine
Add the peppers and tomatoes to a blender with 1 clove of garlic, the stock powder, paprika and water. Blitz until smooth
Pour the sauce into a pan on medium heat and stir in the basil leaves. Season with salt and pepper and leave it simmer while the gnocchi cooks

Drain the cooked gnocchi and add them to the sauce, stir gently making sure all the gnocchi is covered by the sauce
Sprinkle the pecorino on top and serve hot.
